Abstract
The viscosity‐volume data of Kleinschmidt and Dow have been examined at various pressures and temperatures for lard, sperm and Pennsylvania medium oil. The viscosity‐volume isotherms at 25°, 40° and 75°C are not identical for any of the oils studied, indicating that viscosity cannot be a function of the specific volume alone. The viscosity‐volume curve for lard oil at 25° departs from the one at 75° by an amount sufficient to change the viscosity by a factor of 2.3 at a volume of 0.99, and by a factor of 3.2 at a volume of 0.93. Similar curves for Pennsylvania medium oil at the same temperatures are even more relatively displaced; the discrepancy in viscosity varies from a factor of 3.8 at a volume of 0.99 to 7.6 at 0.94. The three oils do not obey Batschinski's equation at atmospheric and higher pressures up to 4000 kg/cm2.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
